Independent admissions practice · Since 2011
Built through trust. Kept personal.
Adarsh Khandelwal and Rohan Ganeriwala founded Collegify in 2011. Since then, the practice has supported students and families through study abroad and selective Indian admissions. It has grown independently, through close work, family recommendations and word of mouth.
The applicant still comes before the university list.
Meet the founders
2011
From the first academic choices to the final application, the plan has to work for the student and the life they are trying to build.
The Collegify story
A relationship-led practice, built to stay personal.
01
Built through trust
Collegify has grown independently, with the quality of the advice and the care taken with each student earning trust over time.
02
Carried by word of mouth
Much of the practice has grown through former students, parents and families introducing Collegify to the next applicant who needs thoughtful guidance.
03
Connected beyond admission
Close alumni relationships keep the work grounded in what happens after an offer: preparing for college, developing a résumé and finding direction for an early opportunity.

How we think
Good advice makes the reasoning visible.
- 01
Start with the applicant
We first understand their academic record, interests, constraints, deadlines and the decision currently holding up the work.
- 02
Make the reasoning explicit
A course or university belongs on the list for stated reasons: curriculum, requirements, cost, location and fit with the applicant’s plans.
- 03
Keep the work visible
Students and families should know what is due, who owns it and when feedback will arrive. That makes a complicated process easier to manage together.
- 04
Prepare for what comes next
Admission is one decision, not the finish line. We help students develop judgment, an intellectual body of work and a résumé they can keep building as they prepare for college and pursue their first internship or early career step.
India and the world
Different systems. The same need for good judgment.
We work across undergraduate, postgraduate and MBA applications, matching each student’s goals with the admissions logic of the programme they are considering.
Within India
Selective Indian admissions
Liberal arts undergraduate, MBA and other programmes where qualitative applications, essays, interviews and a coherent profile matter.
Beyond the offer
The aim is not only to complete an application. It is to help a student become more college-ready, leave with stronger work and know how to approach the next internship or career conversation.
